There is no official way to do so that I know of. But there is the AddonCacheControllers clear() method which is in theory accessible. But it requires an authenticated POST request from a user with admin permissions. Since you are an admin, you can spoof such a request.
The easiest way to do so is to search for a link tag with the class HiJack since such links are hijacked by the framework and sent as a POST request.
Go to the plugin section
Use your browsers tools to inspect the toggle slider of the plugin "Stub Content"
Change the link target "/settings/plugins/all/stubcontent" to "/addoncache/clear"
Use the slider to activate the plugin
Instead of activating the plugin, the cache will be cleared **TADAAA** 😎

This sounds really like a bad hack ;-)
Short test says: "Addon cache cleared"
I will try this live and come back to report.
Thanks a lot.
